A1 vs D2, B1 vs C2, D1 vs A2, C1 vs B2.

Maru providing further proof that playing Protoss against Gumi in GSL was stupid.

Qualifier results here: (Wiki)Global StarCraft II League/2025/Season 2/Qualifier

In terms of delta from Season 1:

Z: -Reynor, +SHIN
T: +Bunny
P: -Trigger, -NightMare, -SoS, +Creator, +Zoun


I like the roster a tiny bit better for S2. Sad to be missing NightMare though... dude seems like he's always on the cusp. Hopefully some of the guys who have been perennial Ro8 finishers can amp it up and do well.

Interesting that trigger and Reynor leaving makes it so that it goes back to being a situation where everyone who 'should' qualify makes it in.
AdministratorHey HP can you redo everything youve ever done because i have a small complaint?

the "shoulds" are really debateable. If should means you would expect than last season had that already. it's moreso the "maybes" who are making it in this season. For instance, you consider the players who didnt make it last season but this season as shoulds i.e., Bunny, Creator, Shin? I think they are the same amount of "should" as lets say Nightmare and DRG who didn't make it last season.
Remember that we all come from a place of passion!!

As long as Rogue doesn't have to play a Terran, he seems to be doing quite well.
